Acting upon this hint, Monsieur Val opened the outer door of a stately suite of apartments, which included a lobby, paved with alternate diamonds of black and white marble, but of a dismal and cellarlike darkness; a saloon furnished with gloomy velvet draperies, and with a certain funereal splendour which is not peculiarly conducive to the elevation of the spirits; and a bed-chamber, containing a bed so wondrously made, as to appear to have no opening whatever in its coverings, unless the counterpane had been split open with a penknife.

根据这个暗示，瓦尔先生打开了一套富丽堂皇的房间的大门，其中包括一个走廊，（地上铺着黑白相间菱形大理石，可是廊内黑得阴沉沉的、象地窖一般；）一个雅致的会客室，（里边挂着暗淡的丝绒帷幕，呈现出一种丧葬的光采，那可并不对振奋心情特别有利；）一个卧室。（里边有张制作得很奇怪的床，看来盖在床上的东西都没有个出入的口子，除非用一柄小刀将床罩划破。

When the bus is approaching the gate of Stone Gate Park, in the crossroad it supposed to be turning east, but unconsciously, Michael makes a north turn which is toward crematory.

Next night we stuck a picture, which Tom drawed in blood, of a skull and crossbones on the front door; and next night another one of a coffin on the back door.
